Ingredients
Shortbread crust:
- 1 cup butter, melted (2 sticks)
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 2 cups flour
Lemon filling:
- 4 eggs
- 6 tablespoons lemon juice (about 2 lemons)
- 2 tablespoons lemon zest
- ¼ cup flour
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- Extra powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Place one rack in the middle of the oven.
- In a medium bowl, combine melted butter, ½ cup powdered sugar and 2 cups flour. Stir until all ingredients are incorporated (should resemble wet sand). Press mixture into a 9 x 13 baking dish in an even layer. Bake for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, lightly whisk together eggs, lemon juice and lemon zest in a medium bowl. Add ¼ cup flour and 2 cups granulated sugar, whisking to combine. After 15 minutes, remove the baked crust from the oven. Immediately pour the egg-lemon mixture on to the hot crust. Return the baking dish to the oven for an additional 25 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.
- Finish by cutting into bars and top with a dusting of powdered sugar.
